Facebook Twitter Reddit LinkedIn Email It worked flawlessly 6 times in 4 years and then all of a sudden never worked again and now we've lost the ability to do it again. Posted by Longjumping-Box5691
Longjumping-Box5691 on August 1, 2025 12:18 pm SS at first glance this tinfoil structure looks pretty rickety . Somehow it carried enough rocket fuel to slow its velocity from 5600 km/h which is about 1900 meter per second ! Like if you tried to visualize how fast that is it’s crazy. Then it took off again from the moon and accelerated back up to 5600 km/h to rendezvous with the orbiter then fly back to Earth 6 times it worked flawlessly and then never again.
